OK.

So yesterday (Friday), I worked my normal 24 hr. shift. During the dayside tour (we break them into to 2 tours, day and night, for differentiating the periods when some peeps are working overtime...long story...fuggedabadit...just trust me.), the Ladder Company never turned a wheel... Which is to say, that we didnt have any runs. So, one of the guys who worked the previous day, and was coming back to work the nightside, decides that at about 5am, he's going to drive up to Pa., and buy fireworks.

Lets just say, that with 11 bored firemen, and 3 bundles of M-80's, plus my 2 gross of Bottle Rockets (with report!), you can have a hell of a lot of fun. Such as:

1. Snapping the 'sticks' off of the ends of the bottle rockets, takes away all directional stability. This can be fun if a certain Lieutenant is sitting at the watchdesk, and you tie three of them together, light the fuses, throw them into said Lt.'s lap, and lock the very small Alarm Offices doors, from the outside. I've never seen a 40 year old man move sooo damn fast.

2. M-80's can absolutely blow the bottom of a plastic Gator-Aid bottle completely off. biggrin

3. An M-80, hidden under the spaghetti pot, but inside the burner is a fantastic idea. All you do is hide it underneath the burner, with the fuse in the 'up' position, so that eventually, the open flame burner will catch the fuse. This usually occurs right about the time the Lt. is pouring said spaghetti sauce unknowingly into the pot. It also happens when he's pouring the green beans into the other pot. It makes a very
Big Fucking Mess on the floor though. Simply Wipe, Mop, and repeat by setting un-detonated M-80's back into the same kitchen stove for the guys who are working the next day. If you think spaghetti makes a mess, you should see un-cooked scrambled eggs. eeek

3. Dropping a lit brick of Black Kat Firecrackers, off of the firehouse roof, and onto the crowd of wino's on the corner, is fun for about 30 minutes time.
Eventually, they get the message, and move to another corner. biggrin

4. Shooting bottlerockets, across the Apparatus Floor, while the Battalion Fire Chief is in quarters, is NEVER ADVISABLE.

5. Uniform shirts are made of a Poly/Cotton blend, and therefore are flammable. So are my pants.
Come to think of it- so are my boxers. surreal

Thank god the nightside wasn't nearly as busy as we'd expected. The gang bangers got into a small scuffle, just down the block from the firehouse. The Police handled it before it became too bad, but I can see the escalation in the very near future, i.e., next Saturday when I'm scheduled to work again.

OK. well...that looks like about all I've got time for currently.

Adios! skull
